TEMPORARY EXHIBIT
Ron Fahrner's Rendering of the Celebration Square Carousel
At the end of 2021, Kathy and Lee Kilbourn donated the miniature carousel her father, Ron Fahrner meticulously carved, painted and constructed all by hand. Although not an exact replica of the carousel at the Saginaw Children’s Zoo (he took some artist license, adding a few more exotic animals), it is a magnificent and magical rendering of the original. Currently on display in the museum’s lobby, the staff are working with the donor to develop an exhibit about the carousel as well as to get it working again.

PRETTY AS A POSTCARD
Long before email, picture postcards were an international fad. These photographic images offered a quick and inexpensive way to share thoughts and information with family and friends. The Castle Museum's latest exhibition, Pretty as a Postcard, shares early twentieth century scenes of Saginaw.
TEMPORARY EXHIBIT
THE ALCOVES
The Alcoves are located on the first floor of the Museum just outside the Morley Room. The hallway is broken into four distinct display areas. While the space may be small, the subject matter is always engaging and educational.
